  • PubMed Abstract: 

    Copper-containing nitrous oxide reductase (N 2 OR) is the only known enzyme to catalyze the conversion of the environmentally critical greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N 2 O) to dinitrogen (N 2 ) as the final step of bacterial denitrification. Other than its unique tetranuclear active site Cu Z , the binuclear electron entry point Cu A is also utilized in other enzymes, including cytochrome c oxidase. In the Cu A site of Pseudomonas stutzeri N 2 OR, a histidine ligand was found to undergo a conformational flip upon binding of the substrate N 2 O between the two copper centers. Here we report on the systematic mutagenesis and spectroscopic and structural characterization of this histidine and surrounding H-bonding residues, based on an established functional expression system for Ps N 2 OR in E. coli . A single hydrogen bond from Ser550 is sufficient to stabilize an unbound conformation of His583, as shown in a Asp576Ala variant, while the additional removal of the hydrogen bond in a Asp576Ala/Ser550Ala double variant compelled His583 to stay in a bound conformation as a ligand to Cu A . Systematic mutagenesis of His583 to Ala, Asp, Asn, Glu, Gln, Lys, Phe, Tyr, and Trp showed that although both the Cu Z and Cu A sites were present in all the variants, only the ones with a protonable side chain, i.e., His, Asp, and Glu, were able to mediate electron transfer at physiological pH. This observation is in line with a proton-coupled electron transfer mechanism at the Cu A site of N 2 OR.
